Manage episode 375298116 series 3473036
I had the honor of sitting down with Brian Kinsella, the co-founder of Stop Soldier Suicide, who shared his extraordinary journey from the battlefield to the boardroom. Brian's transition from the US Army to the world of finance and his involvement in various healthcare, financial services, and tech organizations is nothing short of inspiring. Moreover, his unwavering commitment to ending military suicide tugged at my heartstrings and reminded me of the sacrifices our servicemen and women make.
Throughout our conversation, Brian peeled back the layers of military leadership and the unique diversity within its ranks. He shared personal stories of soldiers grappling with the harsh reality of reintegrating into civilian life after deployment. His own experiences of returning from a 15-month deployment shed a sobering light on these struggles, reinforcing the importance of resilience in acting as a safeguard against suicide among military personnel.
One of the highlights of our chat was learning about Project Blackbox, an innovative initiative aimed at suicide prevention through data analysis. Using devices donated by families of suicide victims, the project aims to identify risk signals and develop pre-suicidal behavior models. We also reflected on the irreplaceable role of human connection in suicide prevention, alongside advanced data tools.
This episode is a heartfelt tribute to our frontline heroes and a clarion call to bolster mental health support for our military and veterans. Tune in for an episode that promises to be both informative and deeply moving.
